Kool Kombi

Description[]

Kool Kombi portrays a first-generation split window Volkswagen Type 2 minibus. The Hot Wheels casting shows a customized "Shorty" delivery variant with an open tailgate and surfboards sticking out the back. There is also a huge stinger exhaust pipe and two small stabilizer wheelie bars on the rear of the vehicle; these are highly recommended for a shorty bus for side and rear stabilization in the event of tipping or flipping. Usually when a shorty was made through shortening modifications a limousine bus was also made in the process.

This casting was originally released as the Volkswagen Kool Kombi; this name was only used for the first five mainline releases (some special editions did not have the "Volkswagen" prefix) before the "Volkswagen" portion was dropped for all subsequent releases (with the exception of the 2015 Convention release and the Volkswagen 5-Pack).
